Here is the same clip with subtitles from bailewen.
Take a closer look of what he says and does. He speaks about attacking/catch the mind, distract the attention, about empty/kong, about xin/yi, he exhibits correct timing and lure into emptiness etc....
At the same time, confronting a teacher of this kind, with a strong neijin, shen, yi, and yes, qi, a student/opponent etc can found himself in a strange loosing situation even as a result of "just" correct timing and a strong shen among many other things of course. Not the mambo jumbo thing the poster thought though and put him as an example.
Really, do you see in this film the same thing we see from all these "ling kong jin" videos? I highly doubt...
Master Wang was a higly accomplished Taijiquan master and Daoist teacher, having achieved high level attainment in many fields of neijia/neidan. At the same time he was a very down to earth person teaching about actual combat along with true internal attainment.
You can find it entertaining, as others did, or an acting class too, if this suits you, however never forget that high level achievement can not be really measured by most of the modern day standarts since there are very few teachers if any, of that caliber alive in our times....
So someone needs to have first hand experience with that kind of teaching, so to have a correct, precise, and actuall knoweldge of what REALLY happens to him and not what it SEEMS to other people that is happening. Or else, someone else will see things from another point of view according to his level of experience and way to see things in general.
Anyway
It's to it's own I guess as everything in life.....
